GRAND PRAIRIE, TX—NOVEMBER 15, 2025—Diamond Cowgirl 123 produced a determined late burst to capture the $47,921 Texas Classic Juvenile Stakes on Saturday night at Lone Star Park, winning the 400-yard event for 2-year-olds who competed in the Texas Classic Futurity trials but did not qualify for the Grade 1 final.

Running over a fast track and fighting through a 7 mph headwind, the sorrel filly stopped the timer in 19.693 seconds, earning a 94 speed index.

Bred in Texas by Mercy Hinklins Horse Farm LLC, Diamond Cowgirl 123 is a daughter of leading sire Flying Cowboy 123 out of Tres Seis Diamond, by Tres Seis.

After being bumped at the start, she surged late under jockey Christian Ramos to reel in the leader and score by a half-length for owner Diamond Cowgirl Partnership and trainer Marc Jungers.

The victory was worth $21,325 to her connections. The filly entered the Juvenile after just missing the final when she broke her maiden in the October 24th trials and posted the 11th fastest time. She has earned $30,796.

Eagles Diamond, a gelding by multiple stakes sire This Is An Eagle out of Fast Dashin Diamond, by Heza Fast Dash, broke sharply from the inside and held the advantage until the final strides before being overtaken, finishing a half-length behind the winner.

Ridden by Gilberto Linares and trained by John Stinebaugh, the Mo Racing–bred runner races for Michael S. Amburn and Pete A. Scarmardo and earned $14,376 for the effort. He was purchased for $62,000 at the 2024 TQHA Yearling Sale and has earned $31,807 in five starts.

The Talk closed strongly to finish third, a half-length behind the runner-up. The Flying Cowboy 123 filly, out of Ms Kates Pyc by Pyc Paint Your Wagon, races for owner-breeder Jerry Windham and is trained by Michael Joiner. Jockey Justine Klaiber guided the Texas-bred to a $7,188 payday.
